	I have been asked by many SOLers who belong to the “ Italian Team” …sometimes called Armada….to represent here on their behalf the grief for the “ too early over the line” departure of Finn …….. I have also been asked to extend to his family the Choral sentiment of condolence and sorrow. Many of the ITA Team have had contact/s with Finn over QTVLM issues and have gained a lot from his expertise and unconditional availability. So ….here it is ……done with pleasure. Piero …. On behalf of the entire Italian SOL Team

	Finn... you will live on as an inspiration of how enthusiasm, hard work, and a bit of boldness can achieve so much with so little resources. I enjoyed working with you. You were a great friend. Good bye

	Fair winds Bimmer. Very sad news hearing of your passing. I was hoping to meet you IRL one day. You will be missed. Condolences to the family. An inspiration to all of us on SOL in the virtual world, I can only imagine how he must have been larger than life in the real world.

	So many words said, what can I add? We will miss you, Finn, your always good humour and matter-of-fact approach to life, and all the working together on set-ups, particulars, race descriptions, time lapses and all the rest. In your memory we plan to race a PYOC from Copenhagen to Svendborg. We will all think and talk of you more then. An announcement will be appearing soon. Clipping along

Auckland to Fiji 2023

Welcome to Auckland and, for the fifth time in Sailonline's history, an epic race to the Polynesian island of Fiji , some 1144nm away. The iconic Steinlager 2 has traditionally been our boat of choice for this event, including in 2020, the last time we raced the course – alone, unaccompanied by a real fleet as it had been #COVID19 quarantined. Hopefully, though, this time we’ll again be showing you how you are doing versus the real tracked boats. Have fun!

Cape Town to Auckland 2023
Welcome to this second RTW race 2023. It's also the June edition of this year's ocean race championship. The course is slightly different from the one sailed in 2020, which then also was part of the RTW series.
This time we will race in the IMOCA 60 foil, as in all RTW races this year. That should guarantee the fun in the South Seas in a truly tough race.

CA 500 2023

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the TransPac Ocean Race in 2019, the organisers of the California Race Week introduced a new longer distance event for line-honours machines. Popular with the largest maxi trimarans, this CA 500, 500nm from San Francisco to San Diego, repeats in 2023, and if you don’t own a maxi trimaran, Sailonline are delighted to have the honour to, for the first time, make their virtual version available to you for a quick ethereal dash down America’s west coast.

Iceberg Dodge TIMED Race 2023
Designed by NZL_Scotsman, this 34nm TIMED race takes us around Kobbermine Bugt. This is the 4th iteration of this race, having been held every 3 years since 2014. Climate change may have eased our access to these fjords but watch your roundings - navigating around those islands continue to remain tricky! The target time to beat is 5:01:11, set in 2017.
